    AI Redraws Boston

    I'm not the one doing it. I found them at the links below the pictures. They came up as part of my broader weekly search for new skyline photos.

    AI Redraws Boston

    The first one looks awful except for the ocean and islands. The second one could probably fool people, "Pruenthal" and all. https://images.whichsideoftheplane.com/cdn-cgi/image/format=webp,quality=90/v2/BOS-takeoff-left-1776021859799.png...

    Prudential of the Day

    There's a new website that explains specific event lighting for the Prudential. Nothing listed for tonight but maybe it will give some interesting info down the road. https://prudentialcenterlights.today/

    Copper Mill Development | Elm Street and Grove Street | Davis Square

    I like how they barely compromised on height across all alternatives. I was expecting it to come back significantly shorter, maybe 12-18 stories (or worse!) instead of 24-26.

    Tallest Buildings Out of the Ground and Growing

    For this site, only points 3 (economic growth/prosperity) and 4 (city condition) really apply. This site is dedicated to buildings and construction, with a side of transportation. The rest of what you said is out of scope and should be argued about somewhere else. Regardless of how I think...

    Aerials

    The zoomed ones always come out amazing. I guess in that case the best option would be to try to find spots from the same general angles, slightly further out. For instance, if the first pics were from Kevin W. Fitzgerald Park in Mission Hill (just a guess) then maybe try Olmstead Park, or the...

    Tallest Buildings Out of the Ground and Growing

    The dorm by Northeastern is at least 230' and underway. Also there's a 260' hospital building in Longwood. Depending on the speed of the foundations those are the candidates.

    Boston College Master Plan

    I think it's dumb that the whole campus looks the same. Each building is nice enough on its own but it's downright silly to have a full grouping of them. I had to take a preparatory class at one of the buildings and found the campus confusing for this very reason.

    Porter Square Infill and Small Developments

    I remember it was "going up" when I still lived in Somerville, and I moved out of there in 2011.

    It's even better if you stay on the ramp towards South Station, a slow-roll directly into the downtown skyline.
